Arizona Trail: Anderson Mesa AZT-30

View of Lake Mary from the edge of Anderson Mesa. The Arizona National Scenic Trail Anderson Mesa Passage (AZT-30) traverses Anderson Mesa in the Lake Mary area southeast of Flagstaff. The passage begins northwest of Mormon Lake, crosses Lake Mary Road near Pinegrove Campground, and ascends Anderson Mesa, passing near several small wetlands on its way to Marshall Lake, the most well-known of these magical and important wildlife habitats. Between Vail and Prime Lakes, the trail skirts around observatory facilities to the edge of the mesa, providing a stunning panoramic view of Lake Mary. On Coconino National Forest maps, the Arizona Trail is labeled as trail number 87 for its entire traversal of the Forest.

Bismarck Lake Trail

The San Francisco Peaks, an extinct stratovolcano, is the highest mountain in Arizona. Located on the western flank of the San Francisco Peaks, Bismarck Lake Trail is an easy one mile trail ascending a gentle grade up through a beautiful forest of aspen, fir, and pine to a large meadow. The meadow offers stunning, unobstructed views of the San Francisco Peaks. The trail splits, the left for a short spur leading to a small, frequently dry tank named Bismarck Lake. The right fork heads up a quarter of a mile further to meet the Arizona Trail, offering opportunities for longer outings southeast through Hart Prairie and up to the Arizona Snowbowl, or north towards Little Tank and beyond.
